BeachRat Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 And people wonder why foreigners don't like America: we're hypocritical.On another note:"Cuba-U.S. relations, never good during four decades of communist rule on the island, have deteriorated during the Bush administration, which has toughened economic sanctions and publicized its plan for a democratic Cuba after Castro."Hmm... seems like we're already doing that with one former dictator's country. Who's going to erect a billboard in Cuba's honor when we invade them!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had asked her for her ID, she thanked me for doing so. It went on for a little bit, and she closed with "Well, if we'd just close off our borders, we wouldn't have to worry about this stuff [credit card theft/fraud]." I simply replied with a "I have no idea why you could possibly think that's anything worth wasting your breath to say" stare. Bigotry at it's finest, ladies and gentlemen.

You put a disclaimer in! It's people like you that are the reason this country is going to hell. I don't agree with what she said, but I don't agree with what you said. I think we need to close off our borders and ship all that are here illegally out. Sorry, but it just needs to be done. Just MO and it's right! :) Edited December 20, 2004 by gdogg16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just MO and it's right! ←The disclaimer was so that people wouldn't think I'm arrogant enough to want to deport people that came here later than my family did. I don't know what Maryland is like most of the year (only had the pleasure of visiting USNA for a few days), but down here illegals are a big part of the economy. You can't just pack them all up and ship them out, it would be absolute mayhem when they're gone.I would love to see the look on your face the day that mass-deportation happens. You may not like them, but either way, you depend on the fact that they'll do work nobody else wants too. Go sit down and smile as your president tries to pass that "Temporary Worker Card" initiative. It's impractical, but it's the most i've seen any convservative try to do towards migrant workers and I respect that.

spottieottie Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 (edited) What do you think America was like before all of the Illegal immigrants came in to this country. White Americans still doing blue collar work. This country would still be FINE without the illegals. Our state's taxes and state funded businesses wouldn't be going bankrupt due to illegal's theft and abuse of American rights (and hard earned freedom and prosperity). The Mexican's where I live (check the sig) stand on the corner for work and then refuse it when they don't get $8.00 / hour and lunch bought for them as well. I really despise the fact that they come to this country and then manipulate our people, customs, ethics, and our system and CAN'T respect our country while they're at it. In short: ship them out. I know at one time my ancestors were immigrants too, but they didn't sneak over the border and use/ disrespect our country; they came through Ellis Island...and appreciated the country they moved into.
